Moving dirt

Came back from the lake and saw that our driveway was started. Have to dig down and slope the water away from the buildings.

Nice gentle curve from the garage drive along the back of the West Wing to the front drive. It needs to be wider on the curve so that it goes in front of the dumpster. All the dirt in the front of the well house (shed) will be made into parking using the same rock as the driveway rock.

 Of course what would dirt work be without a cut line. Th phone line was marked. Our dirt guy never thought it would only be 3 inches below level. So no land line, no internet and no cell phones at the house until we get AT&T out to repair the line. Since we have to use a cell booster for our cell phones and it goes through the phone line we are really unconnected at home. Maybe by Friday they say we will have new lines.

Here is Bill's great retaining wall with dirt put into the space between it and the drive. Now we get to move it where it needs to go and get it ready for the river rock that will go here. Last night in an hour we moved about 4 tons of dirt. Too much was put in so we had to shovel it into a wheelbarrow and take it to the east side that needs dirt built up. Buried a flat rock under the dirt where the driveway runoff goes so we shouldn't have a hole develop.
